Nini’s Modern Beauty Makeover, Nacogdoches TX
A before and after shot of my beautiful wife Nini, who has recently accepted a job at the Montana State University! We celebrated the good news with a “modern beauty makeover” photoshoot. Montana State is in Billings Montana and we’ll be moving in July. I could not be more excited! We have enjoyed our year in Texas, but I have always hoped of moving to Montana (as a close second only behind Nebraska). Big Sky country has two of my favorite national parks, Glacier and Yellowstone, and the Grand Tetons are just around the corner. It is a landscape photographer’s paradise! While Nini will be starting a new chapter in her career, I’ll be starting a new career altogether, as a photographer doing shoots just like this modern beauty makeover shoot and weddings. I can’t wait!
This before and after photo is an important piece of marketing for my new business. It is inspired by Sue Bryce’s before and after marketing that she trained us to make in her 28 Days challenge on creativeLIVE. The goal of that workshop is to train a new photographer to shoot Sue’s modern glamour style in 28 days. Well I’ve been following Sue for a lot longer than 28 days and have yet to master her style, but I’m getting there! Both shots were taken using natural light.
Critiques are always welcome.

I was looking for the Big news and somehow missed it.
Congratulations to you both as another chapter in your lives is revealed...
Don't forget the Sawtooths in Idaho. Washington and Oregon are not that far either...
